SECTION 3 – HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION

This product is not considered to be a hazardous substance as defined under OSHA’s Hazard Communication Standard (29 CFR 1910.1200).

EMERGENCY OVERVIEW:

CAUTION!

Vapors form from this product and may travel or be moved by air currents and ignited by pilot lights, other flames, smoking, sparks, heaters, electrical equipment, static discharges or other ignition sources at locations distant from product handling point. Vapors from this material may settle in low or confined areas or travel a long distance to an ignition source and flash back explosively. This material may produce a floating fire hazard.

SECTION 4 – FIRST AID MEASURES

EYE CONTACT

Flush eyes thoroughly with large amounts of water, lifting lids periodically for at least fifteen minutes. Get medical attention if redness or irritation occurs.

SKIN CONTACT

INHALATION

Remove to fresh air. Get medical attention if breathing is difficult or lung irritation is present.

INGESTION

Do no give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Do not induce vomiting. Get immediate medical attention.

Please note that there has been no evidence of the health effects listed for this product, nor would it anticipate the occurrence of these health effects when the product is used under normal conditions.

HUMAN HEALTH DATA

Primary Route(s) of Exposure: Eye Contact; Skin Contact; Inhalation

Human Effect and Symptoms of Overexposure:

Acute

On the basis of Animal Toxicity Data, Face and Body Professionals expects this product to be non-irritating to the eyes and skin and essentially non-toxic by ingestion. However, excessive exposure to airborne dust (from pigment that has dried) may reduce visibility and/or cause unpleasant deposits in the eyes, ears and nose. Injury to the skin or mucous membrane can occur by direct mechanical action or by rigorous skin cleaning necessary for removal of pigment.

Other

Prolonged inhalation (6 to 10 years) of iron oxide fume has been reported to produce changes in lung x-rays of exposed individuals. This condition, siderosis, is considered to be a benign pneumoconiosis that exhibits no adverse health effects. Siderosis has been observed among occupations such as arc-welders where iron oxide fumes are present. To the best of our knowledge, this condition has not been observed after prolonged exposure to iron oxide pigments. Medical Conditions Aggravated by Exposure

None known.

Carcinogenicity

NTP: Not listed

IARC: Not Listed

OSHA: Not Listed

Other: Based on information currently available, this product is not considered a carcinogen.

SECTION 6 - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES

Personal Precautions

Remove possible causes of ignition – Do not smoke. Keep away from heat, sparks, and flame. Ensure sufficient supply of air/ventilation. Avoid inhalation and contact with eyes and skin.

Airborne Organic pigment dust (caused by drying of liquid pigment) may be an explosive hazard. Secure possible sources of ignition and avoid dusting.

Small Spill

For liquid pigments, collect using absorbent materials. Diluting with water is possible. Flush residue using copious water. For dry powder spills, inert materials such as sand may be added to control dusting prior to cleanup. Avoid excessive generation of dust. If dust is generated, use appropriate respiratory protection. Industrial grade vacuum sweepers are also recommended.

Place spilled material into appropriate waste containers for disposal.

Large Spill

For liquid pigments, collect using absorbent materials. Diluting with water is possible. Flush residue using copious water. Dispose at suitable refuse site according to local and national official regulations. For dry powders, contain spilled material immediately with an inert substance such as sand or earth. Use plastic or aluminum shovel to transfer diluted waste material into appropriate containers for disposal.

Materials, which cannot be recycled into your process, should be land filled in accordance with Federal, State and Local environmental control regulations.

SECTION 7 - HANDLING AND STORAGE

Handling

Provide adequate ventilation in storage area. Keep away from sources of ignition – Do not smoke. Keep away from heat, sparks, and flame. Keep container closed when not in use.

Storage

Store at 4° C to 32° C (40° F to 90° F) away from direct sources of heat or ignition. Avoid extreme temperatures. Empty containers may contain product residues and should be handled appropriately. Position containers so that any labeling information is visible.

HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS:

When involved in a fire, decomposition on burning of pigments may evolve noxious gases, which are toxic. These compounds may include carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, nitrous oxides or hydrogen chloride, depending on the pigment type.

SECTION 11 - TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION

GENERAL

Based upon industry-wide experience over many years of manufacturing and published toxicological studies, cosmetic pigments in general are considered to have low levels of toxicity. There is no evidence of harmful effects from available information.

There are no established permissible exposure limits for this product.

ACUTE (SHORT-TERM) TOXICITY

Skin contact: May cause minor irritation with itching and possible slight local redness.

Prolonged or repeated contact may cause drying of the skin. No evidence of harmful effects from available information.

Inhalation: Not expected to be an inhalation hazard. However, high concentrations of vapor may cause irritation of the respiratory tract with coughing and chest discomfort. May also cause headache and drowsiness. Excessive levels of fumes may result in discomfort after repeated or prolonged exposures.

Ingestion: Maybe harmful if swallowed. Contact Physician Immediately.

CHRONIC (LONG-TERM TOXICITY)

No known published data available and no adverse effects expected.

Sensitization: Data not established for this product

Chronic Toxicity: Data not established for this product

Reproductive Toxicity: Data not established for this product

MUTAGENICITY

No mutagenic effects known or expected.

Toxicological tests performed on chemically identical products.

SECTION 12- ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION

This product has not been evaluated for its ecotoxicity. However, the biodegradation of Organic & Inorganic colorants under aerobic conditions is expected to be poor and there is no evidence to suggest they create any significant ecological problems when released into the environment.

Since Organic & Inorganic pigments are generally insoluble compounds, they are believed to have minimal bioaccumulation and bioavailability characteristics.

SECTION 13 - DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS

General

This product must be disposed of in accordance with all applicable Federal, State and local regulations. If discarded in it’s purchased form, this product would not be a hazardous waste either by listing or by characteristic. However, under RCRA, it is the responsibility of the product user to determine at the time of disposal, whether a material containing the product or derived from the product should be classified as a hazardous waste (40 CFR 261.20-24).
